Wallaby

It's been a while since I've posted a FO... Probably because I haven't finished much of substance lately! Nonetheless, I did finally finish my eldest daughter's sweater (I knit each of my two daughters a sweater each year). This year, they're getting matching Wallabies (I think...) I just finished Sophia's today!

The saddest thing about this year's sweaters is that they're made from yarn bought on liquidation-sale from my favorite LYS which closed several months ago. I seldom got to visit it, since I don't live in SW Michigan any longer, but it's sad to know that they're not open any longer nonetheless.)

In any case, a joy-filled, love-rich and blessed new year to each of you! My life is better because of MWK and the community it creates!

That's actually one of the great things about this pattern - there's a size for everyone!

The other thing that I like is that there's absolutely NO sewing. The only thing that comes close is kirtchener-ing the hood and the armpits. Everything else is done either in the round or attached as it's made.

It isn't a fancy pattern but it's comfortable and stands up for the long haul, which is nice!

I was beginning to wonder what happened to you, Tim. But I can see you've been busy. Beautiful work, really well done! Your daughter looks like she's enjoying wearing it. Beautiful job and beautiful yearly custom.
